it's almost
time for war.
Juliette has escaped to Omega Point. It is a place for people like her—people with gifts—and it is also the headquarters of the rebel resistance.
She's finally free from The Reestablishment, free from their plan to use her as a weapon, and free to love Adam. But Juliette will never be free from her lethal touch.
Or from Warner, who wants Juliette more than she ever thought possible.
In this exhilarating sequel to Shatter Me, Juliette has to make life-changing decisions between what she wants and what she thinks is right. Decisions that might involve choosing between her heart—and Adam's life.
I was hesitant to pick up this book because I did enjoy Shatter Me but I'd waited ages to read this book and I had lost a lot of my interest for it but when I finished this book I was very satisfied!
In this books I liked Juliette so so SO much more because she was so much stronger and more interesting I am going to say. Same goes for Adam, although he is not my ideal boy for Juliette *Cough* Warner *Cough* I did like how he acted in this book and how they acted together. Also, towards the end of this book the romance was starting to go the direction I wanted it to so that makes me so much more excited for the next book.
The plot twists in this book I really loved because it really set out the rest of the story. I was not expecting any of them. This book had some of the best plot twists I've ever read and this wasn't because they were humongous and crazy (well some of them were) but because they benefited the story so well and made me more and more enjoy this book.
At the start of this book it took me a while to plough through and I was just not enjoying it but when I hit the 150-200 mark I started to really get engrossed and started to get excited!
Normally I find Tahereh's writing okay just because it's not my ideal cup of tea but I really enjoyed it in this book particularly because I liked hearing Juliette's thoughts more because of all the craziness that happened in here.
Overall I enjoyed most of this book so I gave it...
4/5 stars
That's all for this review! I hope you enjoyed and I'll see you soon!
Happy Reading!

ReplyDeleteThanks Christy
DeleteI haven't read this one but I'm glad you enjoyed it! I heard that this series gets better and I would love to read the second one eventually (:
ReplyDeleteI don't know whether I prefer the first or second one! You really should try them out!
DeleteI just stumbled upon your blog via Bloggers Commenting Back, and I like the arrow theme you have going on. :)
ReplyDeleteAs for your review, I'm so glad you liked the book! I read it two years ago, but I remember liking the writing in Unravel Me better than the writing in Shatter Me because it becomes even more unique and emotional. I definitely understand where you're coming from about the writing not generally being your cup of tea, though. You might like Ignite Me best of all, then - the style in the last book is much more toned down and almost like any other author's. (Not quite, though.)
Thank you! Same here about the writing, I just liked hearing more about how Juliette felt. I am so excited to start Ignite Me but I have so many other books to get to in the meantime!
